Abstract: PLS-SEM critics have promoted fabricated arguments and frivolous problems to cast misleading shadows on the method. These false accusations have created uncertainty among authors, reviewers, and journal editors, unfortunately leading to rejection in some cases. The criticisms and rejections are almost always based on an incomplete understanding of the method. We address these issues and dispel the key criticisms. Overall, PLS-SEM has been confirmed as a useful and highly attractive method that is widely applied by the scientific community in peer-reviewed journal articles and conference presentations. But like all complex multivariate statistical methods, PLS-SEM has limitations. At the same time, however, the method is continuously being methodologically expanded and enhanced, which increases its value as a standard method for research and practice. |
